Safety instructions  
Sicherheitshinweise  
The following section contains important information relating to operation, place of  
installation and connecting-up of the receiver. Read these notes carefully before  
putting the unit into operation.  
Important notes regarding operation  
Extended absence/Thunderstorms  
During periods of extended absence or at the onset of thunderstorms always dis-  
connect the unit from the supply, or withdraw the mains plug if the power supply  
unit is used. This also applies to any other equipment attached.  
Mains lead  
Make certain that the mains lead (power supply lead) is undamaged. Never put the  
unit into operation if the mains lead is damaged.  
Cleaning  
Withdraw the PSU mains plug before cleaning the unit. Use a dry cloth for clean-  
ing.  
Children-at-play  
Pay attention that children do not insert objects into the ventilation slots. There is a  
risk of mortal danger due to electric shock.  
Repairs  
On no account remove the housing cover since there are dangerous voltages in-  
side the unit that may be contacted. The unit must only be opened by qualified  
specialists, so allow them to carry out any repairs or adjustments to your receiver.  
Unauthorised opening entails loss of guarantee.  
The electrical safety of the unit can be affected by improper tampering with it  
The manufacturer‘s liability excludes accidents occurring to the user when the unit  
is opened.

Safety instructions  
Important notes for siting and installation  
Place of installation  
Every electronic device generates some heat. The rise in temperature, however,  
lies within safe limits. Nevertheless, this does not rule out the possibility of slight  
colour changes to sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers over time due to the  
constant effect of heat.  
In conjunction with treated furniture surfaces, the unit‘s rubber feet can likewise  
give rise to changes in colour. Where necessary, place the unit on a suitable pad.  
Ventilation  
The heat that is generated in this unit is dissipated quite adequately. Never install  
the receiver in a cabinet, shelf or rack with inadequate ventilation. Never close-off  
the openings on the unit that are intended for heat dissipation.  
Do not place objects on top of the unit. Maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm  
above the unit so that the heat generated within the unit is convected away without  
obstruction.  
Mains voltage  
Run the receiver only from a 12 –24V d.c. voltage supply or from 230 V / 50 Hz  
when using the mains pack supplied.  
The unit is not to be connected to the mains until after all the installation work has  
been completed.  
Humidity  
Protect the unit against humidity, drips and splashes.  
Solar radiation/heat  
LNB supply voltage  
Do not place the receiver close to radiators nor expose it to direct sunlight.  
If the feeder system (LNB) is supplied with an external supply voltage and the LNB  
supply voltage is not used for polarity switchover (e.g. Kathrein single-cable feeder  
system UAS 330), the receiver‘s LNB supply must be set to “OFF”(refer to section:  
“Initial settings, LNB supply voltage“).  
There is a risk that the receiver may suffer damage if the change-over is not carried  
out.

Connecting up and putting into operation  
Anschluß und Inbetriebnahme  
A sample configuration is to be found in section: “Connection example“.  
Attention!  
Do not connect the unit to the mains supply until after the installation work has  
been carried out properly..  
Please take note of guidance in section: “Safety- and Installation Instructions”  
Installing the receiver  
The UFD 345 satellite receiver is suitable for mobile use in motor homes or cara-  
vans, but can also serve as a fixed station in the home.  
Place of installation  
The modern, elegant design of the receiver with its modest dimensions means it  
can be placed in visual range, on top of the TV set, for example. In this case, insert  
the infrared sensor into the locating slot on the front of the receiver and run the ca-  
ble to the rear via the cable channel on the bottom of the receiver (see below).  
Connect the Western plug to the Western socket (2).  
Due to its modest dimensions, however, the receiver can also be placed concealed  
from view behind the TV set. Alternatively, the receiver can be mounted on the  
wall. For this, there is a drilling template for the required drill holes at the end of the  
guide. Cut the template out if required. In this case, the infrared sensor is sited  
separately.  
Infrared sensor  
The detachable infrared sensor receives the signals from the remote control and  
passes them on to the receiver via the cable. As a result, it allows the sensor and  
receiver to be sited separately. Consequently, the receiver can be sited outside the  
reception range (line of sight) of the remote control, thus saving on space.  
Connection of the sensor to the receiver is via the 8-way Western plug, which you  
should connect to the Western socket (2) on the rear of the receiver.  
For optimum working, the infrared sensor should be sited at a clearly visible spot  
near the TV set  
Connecting up the unit  
Power supply  
With mobile use, the receiver should be connected directly to the vehicle‘s on-  
board supply (12 ... 24 V) using the adaptor cable included (adaptor cable with uni-  
versal plug for cigarette lighter or vehicle socket outlet and inner hollow conductor  
plug).  
7
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Connecting up and putting into operation  
Connect inner hollow conductor plug to the power supply socket (6).  
Caution!  
If the power supply cable is modified or a different one is used, it is essential to  
check for correct polarity. Incorrect polarity will result in damage to the receiver.  
For fixed applications use the accompanying  
power supply unit 230 V~/16 V=.  
Satellite signal connection  
Connect the Sat IF input of the receiver to the satellite receiving system.  
For the connection use a coaxial cable with an F-type connecting plug.  
If the F connector is not yet fitted to the cable:  
Insulate the cable as indicated in the following illustration, and  
Carefully screw the F connector onto the cable end until it is firmly seated on  
the cable.  
Attention!  
Do not use any tools to screw the F plug onto the cable or to tighten to the F  
socket. Put the connectors on hand-tight only.  
Attention!  
When fitting the plug, make certain that none of the fine wires of the braided shield  
makes contact with the inner conductor giving rise to a short-circuit.  
Receiving system presets  
Presetting carried out for the control signals was for conventional receiving sys-  
tems, thus 14/18 V for polarity switching and 22 kHz switching signal for satellite  
selection in the case of multifeed receiving systems.  
If DiSEqC or tone-burst switching matrices are to be used in the receiving system,  
the setting must be selected for "DiSEqC" signal or "Tone Burst” in the initial setup  
menu at submenu “DiSEqC“.  
For this, refer to section: “Initial settings, DiSEqC menu“.  
Also take note of the technical guide for the matrices.

Connecting up and putting into operation  
TV and video recorder connection (VCR)  
Connect-up the satellite receiver (TV Scart socket) and TV set with a Scart ca-  
ble.  
If your TV set has stereo capability, a Scart connection allows you to receive the  
sound in stereo.  
Connect-up the video recorder and satellite receiver (VCR Scart socket) again  
using a Scart cable.  
Decoder connection  
You can also connect-up a decoder to the receiver for Pay-TV programmes.  
No further setting is necessary for decoders that require a video signal and supply  
a switching signal, such as Premiere decoder and Videocrypt decoder, for exam-  
ple..  
Important  
With decoders that do not supply a switching voltage, the receiver must be pro-  
grammed appropriately beforehand (see “The video menu” section in chapter “Pro-  
gramming TV programmes“).  
Also take note of the decoder specification!  
Using a Scart cable connect-up the decoder to the decoder Scart socket.  
Inserting batteries into remote control handset  
Remove the cover on the rear of the remote control handset.  
Insert both of the batteries supplied into the remote control handset.  
Make certain that the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity!  
Replace the cover again.  
Note  
Exhausted batteries are special waste and should not be disposed of with house-  
hold refuse. Instead, hand them in to a collection centre for used batteries!

Video recorder playback (VCR)  
For playback from the video recorder, the satellite receiver needs to switched on to  
ensure the signal path is switched through from the VCR Scart socket to the TV  
Scart socket.  
SAT/TV changeover  
Where the satellite receiver and TV set are connected via a Scart cable, many TV  
sets immediately switchover signal input to video reception (on the Scart socket)  
when the satellite receiver is turned on. The switching voltage of the TV Scart  
socket therefore needs to be switched off if you want to view a terrestrially broad-  
cast TV programme.  
Press the  
key.  
The switching voltage on pin 8 of the TV Scart socket is turned off, and it is turned  
on again by pressing once more.  
In Sat mode, “Sat mode” is displayed on the screen for approximately 3 seconds.  
Operating the receiver without remote control  
On connecting the satellite receiver to the supply, the unit always reverts to the last  
operating mode it was in prior to being switched off.  
If the unit was disconnected from the supply whilst in standby mode, it reverts to  
standby mode on reconnection to the supply. If you happen to have mislaid the re-  
mote control handset, you can switch the receiver on by simultaneously pressing  
both  
keys on the infrared sensor.  
You can switch between the “TV” and “Radio” operating modes in the same  
manner.

The power radiated by individual transponders (satellite programmes) varies. Be-  
sides this, the footprints of the transponders are also different. Picture optimisation  
must therefore be carried out for each programme and is not stored either. This  
means that picture optimisation must be carried out again after changing the pro-  
gramme.

Programming TV programmes  
Programmieren von TV-Programmen  
The satellite receiver has already been factory pre-programmed for satellite re-  
ceiving systems with feed systems (receiving system) which have an oscillator fre-  
quency of 9.75 GHz. All of the programmes set up are listed in the table enclosed.  
If your satellite receiving system uses a feed system with a different oscillator fre-  
quency, the receiver only needs to be matched to the feed system oscillator fre-  
quency during the installation.  
The procedure for this can be found in section: “Initial settings, Oscillator fre-  
quency“.  
Tuning in TV programmes  
To tune in to new TV programmes, the video and audio reception parameters need  
to be set up accordingly.  
The latest programme assignments can be obtained from satellite programme  
magazines, or called up via the videotext of programme Sat 1 from page 516.

Note  
With Astra satellites, only digital signals are transmitted in the upper frequency  
band (high-band). Special receivers are also required, however (DVB receiver;  
d-Box).  
The customary (analogue) signals are transmitted on the lower frequency band  
(low-band). The same is also true at the moment for Eutelsat programmes.  
Select the required polarity therefore as either Vert. Low or Hor. Low only.  
In the factory presetting (as delivered), the setting “Pos. A/B” has been chosen in  
the “DiSEqC” initial setup menu, menu entry “22 kHz signal”.  
The settings Vert. High and Hor. High are not operative.  
Video deviation  
Oscillator  
The satellites transmit their signals with different video deviation, 16 or  
25 MHz. The setting has an effect on the picture brightness.  
Adjust the video deviation to obtain optimum picture brightness.  
The receiver is equipped with four LO frequency groups (LO 1 to LO 4), which can  
be set to give troublefree matching to different feed systems with different oscillator  
frequencies (e.g. Telecom 1A).  
In the delivered state, all four oscillator frequencies are set to 9.75 GHz

Decoder menu  
You can attach a decoder to the decoder Scart socket for a Pay-TV programme.  
The receiver recognises Pay-TV programmes for which decoders supply a switch-  
ing signal (e.g. like Premiere) independently, and switches this signal through to  
the TV- and VCR Scart socket.  
For decoders that do not supply a switching voltage the following setting is to be  
carried out.  
Call up the video setup menu,  
Select menu entry “Decoder menu“,  
Activate the “Decoder menu“.,  
Set the video signal path to external,  
Set the audio signal path to external only if audio signal is encoded as well.  
Note  
If the decoder connected requires a baseband signal with PAL- or MAC-de-  
emphasis, a setting of baseband PAL or baseband MAC needs to be made in

In the initial setup menu, matching of the satellite receiver to the satellite receiving  
system is carried out.  
Important  
The receiver has already been factory pre-programmed for standard satellite re-  
ceiving systems.  
Alterations to the initial setting are therefore necessary only if your receiving sys-  
tem deviates from this type of installation or if you happen to want different set-  
tings.  
The settings in the initial setup menu are generally carried out by the specialist  
dealer on installation of the satellite receiving system.

Initial settings  
Oscillator frequency  
The satellites radiate their programmes in a frequency range that satellite receivers  
are unable to process. In the receiving system (known as the LNB - Low Noise  
Block converter or LNC - Low Noise Converter) this frequency is converted into a  
lower frequency that can be processed by satellite receivers.  
The satellite transmission frequencies lie in the following ranges:  
10700 ... 11700 MHz  
11700 ... 12750 MHz  
Low-band  
High-band  
The receiver‘s input frequency range, however, lies in the range: 920...2150 MHz.  
Conversion of the higher frequencies into a lower frequency is achieved with the  
aid of the oscillator frequency (LO frequency). Various oscillator frequencies are  
used for the conversion according to the satellite frequency range and type of sys-  
tem.  
For Astra and Eutelsat receiving systems, this is generally 9.75 GHz (9750 MHz)  
for the lower frequency band (low-band) and 10.6 GHz (10600 MHz). for the upper  
frequency band (high-band). Older receiving systems still operate in the low-band  
region with 10 GHz oscillator frequency.  
The receiver calculates the frequency onto which it needs to tune by subtracting  
the oscillator frequency from the satellite transmission frequency stored for each  
programme.  
As a result, you can easily install the UFD 345 on other receiving systems without  
needing to reprogramme every single programme slot.  
You only need to set up the particular oscillator frequencies that your receiving  
system uses.  
In the delivered state, the oscillator frequency is set to 9.75 GHz (9750 MHz) for all  
of the LO groups (LO 1 to LO 4).  
Changing the oscillator frequency  
Call the initial setup menu (see paragraph: “Calling the initial setup menu“).  
Using the keys move to menu entry  
“Oscillator menu . . .”.  
Call up the “Oscillator selection“ submenu using the  
keys.  
Move to line in which you want to alter the oscillator frequency (LO 1... LO 4) .  
Using the numeric keys set the desired LO frequency in 5-digit form  
(e.g. 09750).  
The already pre-programmed LO frequencies listed below can be selected with the  
keys  
09610 09665 09750 09950 10000  
10230 10259 10500 10600 10700  
10750 11000 11125 11300 11450  
Further oscillator frequencies are set up by the same method.

DiSEqC menu  
Fundamentals of the DiSEqC signal (Digital Satellite Equipment Control)  
In order to select the satellite signals different control signals are required.  
Up until now, the 14/18V LNB supply voltage and the 22 kHz signal (superimposed  
on the LNB supply voltage) have been sufficient for signal selection for the majority  
of applications.  
With these four control criteria it is possible to switch between horizontally and ver-  
tically polarised signals, as well as between two satellites (multifeed reception).  
With the extension of the frequency range to the 12 GHz region (high-band region  
11.70 – 12.75 GHz) or for reception of more than two satellites, additional control  
criteria are required for LNB selection and signal selection.  
The “DiSEqC“ control signal has been developed by Eutelsat in collaboration with  
Philips.  
The “DiSEqC“ control signal is, in fact, a special form of modulation (pulse-width  
modulation) of the already existing 22 kHz signal.  
Here one can differentiate between:  
DiSEqC tone burst  
(also termed Simple DiSEqC or just DiSEqC)  
DiSEqC 1.0  
DiSEqC 2.0  
The UFD 345 receiver is equipped with both the tone-burst signal and DiSEqC 1.0.  
The setting required is dependent on the components of your receiving system.  
Settings in the DiSEqC  
Call the initial setup menu (see paragraph “Calling the initial setup menu“).  
Using the keys move to menu entry “DiSEqC menu . . .“.

Tone-burst and DiSEqC-signal  
If more than four control criteria are needed in a receiving system, a  
DiSEqC control signal is required.  
Which of the two setting options is required: “Tone Burst“ or “DiSEqC“  
depends on the components of the receiving system.  
Thus take into account the specifications of the components present in the receiv-  
ing system (switch-over matrices).

Remote  
If “DiSEqC components” are cascaded in a satellite receiving system (several  
DiSEqC matrices are connected in series), the menu entry "DiSEqC Repeat" must  
be switched to "On"  
The “Remote” setting in the “DiSEqC” menu entry is intended for future applica-  
tions.  
If the UFD 345 receiver is operated in a receiving system with a “Subscriber-  
controlled preprocessing system“ e.g. “Kathrein UFO mini digital”, Remote  
must be set in the DiSEqC menu.  
In this case, the corresponding transmission frequency is selected in menu entry  
“Remote Frequency” in the range 920 to 2150 MHz. The satellite signal is trans-  
mitted from the receiving system to the receiver on this frequency.

Switching over remote control’s command set  
The remote control handset contains two command sets. This allows two receivers  
of the 200/300 series to be operated independently in a room (not in conjunction  
with a twin receiver).  
For this purpose, programme one receiver on command set 1 and the second re-  
ceiver on command set 2.  
Switch on receiver 1 and switch off receiver 2 (with the mains switch on the unit  
or interrupt the power supply).  
Press the  
key and keep it pressed.  
Using the numeric keys enter “001”.  
Switch receiver 1 off (with the mains switch on the unit or interrupt the power  
supply) and switch receiver 2 on.  
Press the  
key and keep it pressed.  
Using the numeric keys enter “002”.  
Switch receiver 1 on once again.  
Press the  
key and keep it pressed.  
Using the numeric keys enter “003”.  
Note  
Note  
With the first two settings the remote control must be pointed towards the respec-  
tive receiver which is switched on.  
With the  
key you can now switch between the two command sets A and B  
(toggle function) and operate the two receivers in alternation.  
On delivery command set 1 is always active.  
If you are using only one receiver and the active command set has been switched  
over inadvertently due to maloperation rendering the receiver inoperable, the re-  
mote control can be switched back to command set 1 without difficulty. The proce-  
dure for this has already been described above.
